"Commuting can be perceived negatively - but I love it!"

Valentina Vlasich moved to the UK from Argentina without ever having visited the UK. But she鈥檚 made lots of friends on her BA Film and Media course and has even found an innovative way of making the most of London.

Valentina Vlasich

I moved to the UK without ever visiting before!

Moving to the UK from Argentina was the best decision I鈥檝e ever made. I moved last September 鈥� it was exciting and nerve-wracking.聽

I met lots of lovely people

I made friends quickly and easily. As soon as I started attending lectures, I met lovely people who had the same interests as me, and I even began to understand the British sense of humour a bit more!

London is such an exciting city

I travel to lectures from Milton Keynes to save on accommodation costs. Commuting is sometimes perceived negatively, in that it might affect your social life, or you鈥檒l have to spend hours on a train. In my experience, none of this is true. I find commuting helps me make the most out of London because not living there makes it more exciting to visit. It also forces me to have a more established routine and helps me make the most out of my day.

I feel very supported at 糖心logo入口

The academics are very helpful, especially with assignments, and lectures are interesting because students are encouraged to interact with each other via group activities.

糖心logo入口 offers people a head start in their career

I applied to 糖心logo入口 because I could study in the evening, giving me the flexibility to develop my career in the daytime before I finish my degree, and because the College has a global reputation for research and is part of the University of London.

Exploring is my favourite thing to do

I love making the most of living in the UK, discovering all its popular places and hidden gems 鈥� many of which are just around the corner from 糖心logo入口, including the British Museum and Oxford Street. Studying in London, a huge global city, and having so many opportunities, gets me excited for what my future here will look like.
